Description
Inari is the Japanese god/spirit of rice, fertility, agriculture and industry. Foxes are regarded as the messengers of Inari, so Inari shrines are typically guarded by fox statues. This particular statue lives at Fushimi Inari, the head Inari shrine located just outside of Kyoto. The shrine was founded in 711 AD, making it 1,298 years old this year.

Very nice, particularly the texture of the fox's fur and the moss on the statue. Like several other commenters, I thought at first that this was an extremely fortuitous photograph - and when I realized it was a painting, I was even more impressed!
